Russia is managing internal affairs including the scheduling of the 2026–2028 academic year, with the new school year set to begin on 1 September 2026 and end on 26 May 2027. The country is also involved in religious activities, such as hosting the relics of Saint Spyridon Trifuntovskiy across 12 regions for public veneration. Additionally, Russia has reported intercepting 316 Ukrainian drones over a 12-hour period, and authorities have imposed business restrictions on singer Филипп Киркоров until September 2028 due to falsified data in legal filings.
